Has anyone had a patient who received Synvisc injections and had an AE in the lower anterior compartment that lasted well over 1.5 months?

What's the follow-up protocal.

Does anyone know the half-life of Synvisc after it goes systemic?

Thanks for your input.

Maybe your pt has an allergy to the synvisc antibodies. No I have not had a pt that experienced an adverse reaction(s)
